Tasting Note
“Lovely deep ruby color. A brooding nose hints at ripe red cherry, strawberry, minerals and sweet spices, complicated by aromatic herbs. Then also reticent on the palate with juicy acidity lifting the floral and red fruit flavors. Finishes long and fresh, with building salinity.” [92/100 Points, Ian d’Agata – September 2018, vinous.com]
